> Writing a code generator in Kotlin is a neat idea, but I think it might make the barrier to contribution high (now people need to know Rust and Kotlin (and the associated toolchains, etc) I agree, in the context of arrow-rs this is probably a bigger barrier to contribute than the existing C++ based thrift code generator. Maybe the amount of code could be simplified and made easier to change by hand with the use of some macros. The most tricky part of the code generation, difficult to replicate in a macro, might be the decision of which structs require lifetime annotations. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
